CLEAN GAS/CO2 FIRE EXTINGUISHING


NOVEC™ 1230 CLEAN AGENT FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM





Description

Novec™ 1230 instantly vaporizes upon discharge, totally flooding protected spaces and absorbing heat better than water. The Novec™ 1230 system suppresses a fire before it can start by detecting it at invisible levels. And once the danger has passed, Novec™ 1230 quickly evaporates without harming any valuable assets. Novec™ 1230 suppression systems represent the most effective fire protection on the market today.
